today's car designers are under tremendous pressure to come up with something different than what exist already. And they usually end up with something weird. It is not easy to come up with something different, yet eye pleasing.

If I ever decide to start driving again, this is exactly the kind of car I want. Hyundai/Kia have come so correct the past few years. They went from bottom-barrel to top-tier in the mainstream segment surprisingly quickly. Every vehicle in their lineups is a real contender.

Thats exactly right. In S.Korea everyone uses their phone navi over car navi and mount it up front, because businesses and roads change so fast that car navi become inaccurate after a few months. So people just use their phones for accuracy. The roads in the major city can be unending mazes. Edit: Mainly to keep up with correct speed limits and traffic cams that are everywhere. I dont know about other countries but S.Korean navi warns you if you are about to approach a speed cam. Car navis sometimes display incorrect speed limit which in turn you end up with fines. Smart phone navis are always up to date so its just common practice here.

I have a 2017 Ioniq and have been getting built-in nav updates via SD card since I bought it all for free. This really helps with the livability of your car long-term as you don't need to shell out hundreds at the dealership to get them to update it for you.

Starting to see a couple of these pop up in my city. This and the EV6 are fantastic cars in my opinion, solid range, futuristic styling, not excessively overpriced.

This is the coolest looking production car in years. Hyundai knocked it out of the park. I would love this same design, in actual small hatchback form.

As a person in a wheelchair this car with its quirks has already helped me. A person parked too close to my drivers door in a handicap spot. No way to get in. I used the keys function to revers the car from the spot so I got access to the door and could dissemble the chair and drive away.

looks like an someone's idea from the 80s what the future of cars would look like.

The bonus cushion at the foot of the driver seat isn't a thigh support adjustment. It's supposed to function as an Ottoman. When you are stopped and charging somewhere and you have nowhere to go whilst you wait for said charge, they included this for people who may want to just lie back and relax in what is almost a recliner. If im not mistaken there is a button in the car somewhere that I think does this automatically, like a "max" or "max relax" or "max recline" button that does all the seat adjustment and ottoman deployment in one touch.

I'm absolutely in-love with this walk towards "futuristic throwback retro designs" I like that something looks like it's both from the year 1980 and 2080 at the same time.

I personally love it! It looks like nothing else on the road and I love its quirky styling. So many crossovers or electric cars do not look as cool as this, they all look bland. I saw one in traffic in black and had to do a double-take because I haven't really seen many of them in New Jersey at least. It really looks futuristic, especially against the normal everyday cars everyone drives

Nothing is weird about this! Not even strange! It's so cool, definitely a future car of mine. I really love the looks of this vehicle.

This reminds me of the state of car design in the late 1980s/early 1990s - when high-end brands, such as BMW and Mercedes, had to play catch-up with the more mundane vehicles whose respective brands happened to pick up trendy new aero designs. This car looks new today, but watch the more conservative others follow with a refreshed design language pretty soon.

I drove past one on a little side street, and thought it was an Audi… now I really want one. It ticks all the styling queues for me.

I've fallen in love with this car ever since it was first previewed. I absolutely adore the design!

I actually test drove one last week from our local Hyundai Dealer and it was awesome. One of the things that caught my attention was, that even though the car takes a futuristic and modern approach, they still decided to put buttons in for the infotainment system below the touchscreeen. I hate the fact that other manufacturers go only screens. I still like a turning knob for the volume rather than having to find the button on the touch display and pushing it multiple times to turn up the volume while driving. What’s wrong with putting in some of the most essential buttons. So hats of to Hyundai for going with some buttons!

Love the design. It's not weird or strange - so negative Doug - it's creative, special and beautiful.

Great review as always. I hope the factory looks into your comments > one thing I recommend is to move the speedometer display when the left turn signal is on. See time 10:22, the speed indicator is right ontop of the approaching car. Hyundai can either move the speed display to the lower part of the view, or turn it off while your turning left.

I think it's gorgeous, it's exactly the kind of look I like in cars, Angular but not boxy, slightly curvy.

I see these every so often. I liked them when I saw them on KZread and in renderings, but in person… incredible. So far my favorite one I’ve seen was a black one. It truly stands out and punches well above its price bracket in terms of head turns.

These catch my eye every single time I see one on the road i absolutely love them

The diagonal in the side of the exterior and the "cyclone" design around the wheels are definitely a bit odd, but I like them, and I do like the new color. As for the magnetic panel to the right of the instrument display, my guess is that it is intended to hold cellphones, not refrigerator magnets. I think that's a smart idea.

Whenever I see this car on the road I truly feel like im in the retro future of 2022, like a sci fi movie. Love the design!

How do you do that

I think the design is very well thought out and goes through eveything. As a designer I love all the details that get repeated.

The front seats has a lounge mode for when you are stationary, like charging or such, that's what the footrest is for you, there is a mode, or button or something, i remember from when i test drove one.

I love your Idaho Spud shirt. Thanks for the review. I've been wondering about this car.

Great overall vehicle and one of the best EVs. It's about 4x as efficient as a gas car (100 MPGe) and ultra cheap to charge at home ($5-8). Plus no oil changes and very little maintenance. So over 5 yrs most ppl will save $10-15k on fuel & maintenance. Plus it's really fun to drive, the instant acceleration and throttle response from the high torque motors will put a smile on your face!

This is my new favourite car. So quirky and such an elegant design. Good job Hyundai!

The driver seat thigh support is because the driver seat fully reclines back, which extends that leg rest, and allows the driver to enjoy a nap while charging on a trip. The back seat also has a 110-volt outlet for charging like a laptop or something in the back (it's in the middle seat base, next to your calves, across from the rear USB ports he showed)

I honestly like the way this looks. Nothing else on the road has that pixel led light look. That's cool

I drive mine everyday, and I love every seacond of it. I love quirky cool cars and this is it! Super comfy ride and no range anxiety.

When fully charged how many hours car it go for?

Is the magnetic are to attach your cell phone? Also the signal probably flashes 6 or 7 times to make sure other drivers know the vehicle is coming. I think its great for safety especially when the car is driving itself.

The wheel arches and side diagonal line are very clever styling touches that create an optical illusion that you are looking at a hot hatch when in fact it is a crossover SUV

I like the fact that it looks more like a hatchback than an SUV...

Same reason why I think the Toyota Matrix is actually kinda cool. Mundane car, sure. It has more in common with a hatch and wagon than an SUV. Hose-down rear section, pop up glass on the hatch... And yet it's short like a hatch.

That magnetic panel is most likely for a magnetic phone holder. You attach the magnet to your smartphone and then the phone attaches to a holder you usually glue on the dash, but with this you do not need the second part, you could just put your phone on that panel. Very nice feature.

I think you completely missed the selectable 5 level regenerative braking setting which offers one pedal driving. This is a great feature. Regenerative braking offers outstanding control down curvy mountain roads, has a big impact on range and efficiency. One pedal driving is great after a little getting used to it. These features should be covered in all EV reviews. I took a test drive in the Ioniq 5, and when I asked the salesman about how to use the regenerative braking settings, he was insistent that there weren't any. People need informative KZread videos to help them select the right EV, and dealers need your help as well.

I'm starting to see these around on the roads where I live in SW Pennsylvania. In person, they are as neat looking as they are on screen. Even better since on screen you get that flicker of the lights and 2-dimensional view. In person, they really pop! I LIKE IT! Now, as many already know, I'm no fan of screens being the sole option to use various functions. I do like that the climate controls are pulled out of the screen and put in their typical, rightful place as a separate unit. That, and the stereo appears to have physical controls like buttons and that little "Tune" key-lever control. Plus the vents look to be normal. Like, just use your fingers to adjust the airflow. Unlike another EV vehicle where you have to fuss around with a screen to even do that basic thing... (Rivian) The drivers' screen is nice. I like the futuristic layout, but I feel that some (even me) would actually prefer an option with more of a traditional dial type of display. That, and an absolute requirement would be a dark theme. Even available for day time use. Which I'm sure it has since I could see the edge of the screen in a dark mode in the preview video. The matching center screen is good in that it is WIDE and actually goes along with the naturally horizontal characteristics of a cars interior layout. Unlike some others where the screen is turned on its end like some big goofy cellphone leaned up against the dash (Tesla) Plus,, it's not like it MUST remain on "Home" screen when not being used, right? Just pop it onto the menu screen or whichever screen you choose and leave it there. Bonus points if your particular choice could be set to default. But overall, while I would like to see more physical controls, I get it that some things like GPS and system settings are simpler with a screen. I would like to see an IONIQ 5 in a deep, forest-green metallic with just a hint of goldflake, or in black metallic with a subtle touch of purple or red flake. Burgundy/goldflake would be beautiful as well. Hyundai IONIQ 5 ... I REALLY like it! The rectangular lights, the pixelated details, the squared-off edges and the sharp body lines and creases all look good to me. I mean I really want an Aptera, but that's like a Cybertruck. Lots of promises, and nothing on the road yet, and no one knows when it will happen. IONIQ 5 is here. Now. GIMME ONE! 😃 Edit for typos and clarification..

In my opinion the rectangular and pixelated lights look awesome and distinctive. There's only so many ways you can design a flowy or curvy lights these days that stand out from the rest curvy and flowy lights. The easiest way to stand out is to go the opposite way, and look damn good while doing so.

Those box lights are so FREAKING NICE! I actually like this car. Very different and spot on with a new and experimental design

Hwy doug, was wondering from a HUGE fan of your videos and you do the acceleration test can you show us? If not that would bring in alot more views then you ALREADY have; have a great year.

Doug's declaration of cars and bids was especially strong at the beginning of this video...respect

I think it is an awesome design, inside and out, sure some people are gonna love it, some people are gonna hate it but you gotta give it to Hyundai for being unique👌💯

Love the review; I saw one of these and also Hyundai’s plug-in hybrids. Can the magnetic pad be used to hold your phone? I think yes! Many similar products already sold everywhere and this is integrated in the dash instead of sticking on it and only for 3 months before the glue fails. This is brilliant!

This thing is amazing. Design is great, pixel look is future looking and classy in my opinion. The rear lights are incredible. Plenty of room all around, USB A ports are great because so many people still have USB A cords for many different devices beyond phones. Funny how perspective is so different where you critiqued it, but the overwhelming comments about how cool this is. I liked it so much I got a lightly used one this year. Color matched some parts, switched rims, lowering coming soon.

I've been told those four dots on the wheel are basically a Morse code for the letter "H". And again, the magnetic panel is kinda handy to stick your parking tickets and other like stuff.

Such a cool car and design. Started seeing them more and more around London- it's bigger than I thought it would be? Just by pictures I thought it'd be like a proper little hatchback

We picked one of these up a couple weeks ago and have absolutely fallen in love! It's quirky and actually looks a lot better in person then you'd think. We get a surprising amount of head turns. 😁
